    Default Holy Cow! My daughter got a scholarship

    Not just a scholarship but a $5000.00 scholarship.

    I just got off the phone with her and she won a national award. Only two available in the United States.

    I am so exited for her and had to share the news. Next year with finanacial aid and this should make it so that the parental units do not have to contribute to the overflow tutition because there should not be any.

    Okay, thanks for listening to me express my exuberance.

    Fantastic! I completely understand the exuberance.

    I have one in college and one on the way. Thankfully, the school they've chosen is very generous with scholarship funds... or they wouldn't be there!
